+long_desc="
+ The Parma Polyhedra Library (PPL) provides numerical abstractions especially
+ targeted at applications in the field of analysis and verification of complex
+ systems. These abstractions include convex polyhedra, defined as the
+ intersection of a finite number of (open or closed) halfspaces, each
+ described by a linear inequality (strict or non-strict) with rational
+ coefficients; some special classes of polyhedra shapes that offer interesting
+ complexity/precision tradeoffs; and grids which represent regularly spaced
+ points that satisfy a set of linear congruence relations. The library also
+ supports finite powersets and products of (any kind of) polyhedra and grids
+ and a mixed integer linear programming problem solver using an
+ exact-arithmetic version of the simplex algorithm."
